Setting up a Virtual Machine (VirtualBox)
• VirtualBox is an open source Virtual Machine program from
Oracle. It allows users to virtually install many operating
systems on virtual drives, including Windows, BSD, Linux,
Solaris, and more.
Step 1:
Open the VirtualBox website. Go to 
https://www.virtualbox.org/ in your computer's Internet browser.
This is the website from which you'll download the VirtualBox
setup file.
Step 2:
• Click Download VirtualBox. It's a blue button in the middle
of the page. Doing so will open the downloads page.
Step 3:
• Click Windows hosts. You'll see this link below the
"VirtualBox 6.1.14 platform packages" heading. The
VirtualBox EXE file will begin downloading onto your
computer.
Step 4:
Open the VirtualBox EXE file. Go to the location to which the
EXE file downloaded and double-click the file. Doing so will
open the VirtualBox installation window.
Step 5:
• Navigate through the installation prompts. Do the following:
• Click Next on the first three pages.
• Click Yes when prompted.
• Click Install
• Click Yes when prompted.
Step 6:

window. Doing so will close the installation window and open
VirtualBox. Now that you've installed and opened VirtualBox, you

on your PC.
